[slim iris]

im old in bed by 9:30

[scarlet rose]

My foot is killing me and drinking ruins my sleep 👴

[gleaming sinew]

Bro I didn’t know supermarkets so 50% off meals before closing

Even onigiri were 70 yen

Someone once told me convince stores are expensive

[thick bolt]

Yeah we always tell people to go there besides konbini

No

We said konbini was expensive

[gleaming sinew]

I just got me noodles and some meat with rice for like 200 yen

[thick bolt]

Supermarkets typically are not especially at night

[gleaming sinew]

Isn’t konbini same as convenience ?

I thought it’s the word in English lol

[thick bolt]

Would you consider a 7/11 the same as a grocery store?

[gleaming sinew]

No that’s why it’s convenience store for me

Cause it’s there when u need it

[thick bolt]

Konbini and supermarkets are two different things

[gleaming sinew]

Yeah that I know

People told me konbini was expensive

[thick bolt]

It is for what it is

[gleaming sinew]

I just got it now after seeing 50% freaking percent off

This is mad

[thick bolt]

You’re paying for convenience

[gleaming sinew]

Like I could’ve bought breakfast for 2 days

Amount of onigir

[thick bolt]

You’re buying at a supermarket

Not a konbini

Hence why it’s cheaper

[gleaming sinew]

I didn’t know this lol

Been here 20 days

[thick bolt]

We tell people this

All the time lol

[gleaming sinew]

No one told me 50% off 😭😭😭

I thought difference was 20 yen per item

Like that’s nothing

[thick bolt]

It’s usually like 10-40%

[gleaming sinew]

I bought some fried salmon and merkel

With udon rice meat

All for 350 yen

I’m rich

[thick bolt]

I usually tell people to eat elsewhere unless you need budget food

[gleaming sinew]

And shit looks so freaking good

I wasn’t doing budget food

[thick bolt]

Or if you’re lacking options

[gleaming sinew]

Until I spent 2k bucks in 15 days

Then I said fuck this I’m going budget mode

[thick bolt]

lol that’s a you problem

[gleaming sinew]

Including my new iPhone

4K

[scarlet rose]

Aren’t vending machine waters cheaper than a konbini

[gleaming sinew]

Yeah I went off budget way too hard on this 1

[thick bolt]

Not always

[gleaming sinew]

I’d say depends on location

Sometimes it’s 120 yen

Sometimes it’s 160

[thick bolt]

Depends on the brand of water

[gleaming sinew]

But in general you can get 2L in konbini for 170

[thick bolt]

And location

Supermarket is even cheaper for that too

[gleaming sinew]

Fuck me

They was selling a whole ass grilled fish

50% off

You know how much protein that is

And cheap

From now on in Osaka only this shit late night meals

[thick bolt]

Lol

So many spots to go to though….

[astral plank]

Earlier during day they offer already things like 20% off and indeed after 6/7 it becomes 50 off. Depending on needs buying the bigger packs also safes you money if averaging

[rugged sinew]

[languid rover]

Oh hmm

I'm still down for shinjuku but maybe another set of bars or area might be nice

[languid rover]

Not for a bit im currently just taking it easy on my legs and wanna hit up an arcade for some games first so proably like 8-9?

[rotund ivy]

Sure, but I've never tried the nightlife in tokyo so I'll have to leave the choice to you xD

np, I'm down for 9 if that works for ya?

[languid rover]

Sure sg

I'm not entirely acquainted with shinjuki bars outside of golden gai tbh i know shibuya a bit more

So we might just best guess a first bar and see how it goes

[rotund ivy]

[fair pollen]

Floridian sounds straight out of a fantasy novel

[winter frigate]

Anyone up for dinner/drinks?

In akihibara atm but can move out

[late parcel]

Oh yeah, most of them are real.

[warm breach]

Down for some drink, ate earlier in Shinjuku right now

[winter frigate]

Know any good spots there? I'll need to grab a quick bite though

[warm breach]

Yeah, plenty of places to eat too

[winter frigate]

Cool! Let me hop on down to shinjuku. Ill be there in 30

[thick bolt]

I’m curious now. Can you link the shop?

[languid rover]

Ill proably be hanging around shibuya tn if anyone wants to grab a drink or two but proooably just going to spend time at the tatio arcade after dinner

Doing nikko tomorrow and wanna keep it easy on myself lol

[acoustic grove]

Taito

Play jojo

So peak

[languid rover]

Proably just sink some money into mai mai or something lol

[warm breach]

K

[acoustic grove]

PLAY JOJO

wasn’t a suggestion play it

Battle royale it’s so fire

Taito shibuya has 2 machines

[languid rover]

Okay okay I'll give it a go

Lol

[winter frigate]

Nearly at shinjuku station,where do you want to meet?

[warm breach]

Underneath the cat screen

[warm breach]

you knowwhat I'm talking about?

[winter frigate]

Nope!😂 But I'll have a look

[warm breach]

We could meet at Kabukicho Donki

Also it's starting to rain

Im off to the left of donki if your facing it

[winter frigate]

Almost there

[late parcel]

https://maps.app.goo.gl/pZXhWQ68o4wUMfFn9 ass

[thick bolt]

ass?

[thick bolt]

Ahh I see. Yeah this is an airsoft or BB guns

None of these guns are real

Buying an actual firearm in Japan is an extremely strict and detailed process

and its almost universally only allowed for hunting purposes

[late parcel]

Oh wow I feel dumb

There was another shop I was in earlier but they only had shotguns and bolt action rifles

[thick bolt]

Yeah the process is extremely rigorous

You have to fill out a ton of paperwork

1 on 1 classroom instruction with firearm professionals

You have to be interviewed by a psychatrist

Police will then interview you, your family, your neighbors, your boss, your coworkers, and any former room mates

They also keep track of how many rounds you buy, you own, and you use

Also that license only allows you to buy the specific gun you said you were going to buy

They only allow hunting rifles or shotguns as well

If you want a handgun, its virtually impossible

Pretty much you have to be on the olympic shooting team to get it

[late parcel]

Well, I knew guns were heavily regulated, but I did not know all that.

[thick bolt]

Air rifles are also extremely regulated

In America, you can walk in and buy an air rifle easily, its practically considered a toy or beginner weapon for a child

In Japan, air rifles are treated the same as real firearms

[thick bolt]

Yeah that's just to get a shotgun

I think with rifles, you have to have been a shotgun owner for at least a decade

and then you have to prove that you're a hunter that needs it

[late parcel]

I ended up telling the store owner that I wanted to research the export rules before I made a decision.

I'll probably just skip this purchase. Sounds like too much hassle.

[thick bolt]

and you have to apply for the hunting license, which is as strict as the firearm license

[thick bolt]

Its very easy to get airsoft weapons in the USA

[languid rover]

My feet are mostly recovered from dying whats the move tn is it shinjuku again lol?

[thick bolt]

Yeah Japan is extremely strict when it comes to firearms, probably one of the strictest.

That's why it was a big shock when Abe was assassinated with a firearm

[languid rover]

Wasnt it mostly 3d printed?

[thick bolt]

I don't think so, he made a very rudimentary shotgun

@languid rover Looked like this

[rotund ivy]

I think so, I'm on my way there

[thick bolt]

He built it in a metal workshop. Very rudimentary and very basic, short range only.

[rotund ivy]

I'll just need to find some grub before

[crystal herald]

https://tenor.com/view/genya-genya-shinazugawa-genya-demon-slayer-genya-gun-gif-15836817802647789435

[thick bolt]

@languid rover but yeah

Considering that firearms have been around for centuries and how to build them is easily acessible on the internet, anyone with enough time and skill can do it.

It is admittedly a lot easier in like the US where buying ammo is easy

[winter frigate]

@rotund ivy im in shinjuku with @warm breach

[thick bolt]

In Japan, buying ammo is as tightly regulated as owning a firearm

[languid rover]

Yeah

Okay I'll make my way up there in a bit i need to figure out food

[mint swan]

I'm eating dinner rn as well, staying in shinjuku, lemme know where you guys end up

[rotund ivy]

I should be there in 30

[languid rover]

Man im going to host something in shibuya tomorrow so I can just walk back lol

[late parcel]

Are y'all going for drinks or just the arcade?

[languid rover]

Drinks

I didnt bring my arcade stuff with me lol

[late parcel]

Ok cool, you days Shibuya, right?

[languid rover]

[acoustic grove]

Unfortunate

[late parcel]

@languid rover Ok 45 minutes.

[acoustic grove]

And they had all the time in the world to block the second shot

[thick bolt]

[acoustic grove]

But didn’t do shit

It seemed pretty far for a homemade duct tape metal pipe gun

[languid rover]
